Just had to edit my news history file. Some kind dolt out at somewhere.super.net.whatever decided to post an article with a horribly long message-ID, and I used vi to edit a 110MB history file (well, it was "cheap" and I didn't want to go fix it nicely). 78 cpu minutes to do it.. history: 1781538 lines, 110919568 characters. let's put it this way: the old vi never would have handled it. :-) ...
